Motorcycle specifications KTM1190 RC8 R Akrapovic Limited Edition 2010 The scorpion captures hypersport.

the RC8 R has won over track enthusiasts with its super-sharp chassis. KTM is making it a little more attractive with a new Akrapovic limited series. This exhaust manufacturer has become a key player in the sector - the Austrian hypersport shows this loud and clear on its fairing.

a huge, logoed scorpion takes possession of the sides of the RC8 R. A real threat, endorsed by a whole series of sponsors on the hoof and swingarm. The spirit of German Superbikes recognizes the Katoche as one of its finest actresses. Especially here, where she sets out to make things even more effective.

akra' is present both on the trim and in the innards. The RC8 R Akrapovic Limited Edition is sold with the Club Race Kit. A pack of parts to be installed, containing a racing air filter, optimized cylinder head gaskets, special mapping and, above all, an Evo4 titanium exhaust system to give the twin a serious boost. It goes from 170 to 180 horsepower, while the bike loses 7.5 kilos. That's a lot!

this nervous 1195 cm3 big block is encased in a steel trellis frame, which entrusts its sporting appetite to some handsome peripherals: Marchesini forged wheels, Brembo monobloc 4-piston radial brakes, WP upside-down forks with TiN coating, WP shock absorbers as well, adjustable suspension from everywhere and wicked Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa tires.

this special edition will be produced in a limited edition of 100 numbered units. All that's missing is Jeremy McWilliams to feel the IDM Superbike roar across the asphalt.
The machine is priced at $23,998.
